Hochul is not abandoning "Congestion Pricing", she's just postponing it, until it's more convenient!

[@faywhite7886]

Hochul considering delaying controversial congestion pricing over election fears: report

[@chiquita683]

People that are upset at this can’t see past their nose cuz quite literally everything in the city will grind to a halt with the congestion plan IN ITS CURRENT FORM. It’s def needed but the current set up is harmful and residents not gonna realize it til everything in their life goes up 200% across the board to pay for the delivery charges cuz all those congestion fees will get passed on to who? YOU.

Mix reaction !! Funny how some people are fine causing a financial burden to millions of New Yorkers . For those who don’t drive . You will pay in food prices & other supplies going up #mylord humanity are crazy creatures

[@youngair24]

Thank you

[@brooklynbri7572]

This is the best argument against congestion pricing

[@chipbower361]

So if you can afford to pay the additional charge, not a problem. Will the Gov introduce a “equity program” to allowed lower income users to use it.

[@unconventionalideas5683]

This is stupid. Go ahead and show people that it's worthwhile.

[@SimplyTechna]

What Cleaner Air? Um have people forgot Jersey is next doorM

[@ghostmantagshome-er6pb]

[@dannybx78]

[@azneph611]

You can thank Biden

[@alowroar]

[@LawandOrder-fi5xk]

It's an election year and she's afraid more people will move to other states. Recall Hochul and make Adams a one term mayor.

[@ohok7525]

Hahahaha what a 🤡🤡🤡

[@kevinheneghan74]

Congestion Pricing is needs to go. Let all drivers go for free in new york city. Think about wisconsin they have a no tollway on a highway. Governor Hochul need to get out the power. Lot people can't afford Congestion pricing on downtown. Think about money for fuel costs not on toll. Mayor Eric Adam needs to get out the power. 2 more years new york needs to vote republican governor. New York city needs new republican mayor soon. Make New York Great again.

These Supporters and Rider Alliance don't give 2 cents about the system. Heck, these people don't even use Subway or Buses. All they want is less cars so they can ride their bikes while disregarding the traffic rules.
